Committee Reports

Telephone: Dee had three calls, Kathy had five calls and Donna had one call.

Newsletter: We will continue the newsletter as is for now. Kevin started an on-line newsletter with a few articles included. We discussed, voted and passed a motion to add more to the on-line newspaper. Kathy brought in the intergroups typewriter and a computer she didn’t want”.

Literature: Nothing new locally.

Publicity: No change. Diane Miller, Secretary for Region V, notified us that the Saturday night meeting at the November 2000 Region V Assembly would be an open meeting. This should be publicized wherever possible and we will request 150 flyers for advertising.

Old Business

Outreach Committee: No one was able to visit the Decatur meeting last month. We will try for another date.

Insurance: There was little interest in the insurance. Kevin suggested that we let it ride.

PO Box Key: We still have no key for the mailbox.

Sharathon: Marilyn has a contract with Halls for March 24,2001 for our Sharathon. There is no deposit. There is some question of a $125 room rent for the luncheon room. Arrival and set up will be 8-9 a.m.

New Business

November Elections: We need nominations for officers; Suzette volunteered to chair the nominating committee. Deb and Dale will help. If you can help fill the offices please contact any of these three.

Respectfully Submitted – Mimi (Secretary)
